Hey guys, wanting to change to 1.5 way lsd soon in my dc2r. Just wondering has anyone done this to their dc2r before? Was it a good mod or a bad one?
Any opinions i would much appreciate

Cheers

I'm going down this same path soon.

I'm going with a Cusco RS LSD. Not a bad LSD.
Js racing make one too.. currently obtaining specs of the product.

Don't bother with Spoon... they are weak.

try search button or honda tech forum
they probably have more hands on experience with Kaaz lsd.

r u sure that the spoon LSD and the j's racing LSD is not the same?
i heard they obtain stuff from the same factory
if you look at the price for both j's and spoon, they are both 102,900 yen

Defitnately a great mod, improves the cars turn in ability and still pulls while under deceleration unlike the stock LSD.

Stats on J's Racing LSD for reference is:

Torque: 7-8Kg's
Number of sheets: 12 (in total I'd assume not per side).

For comparisons sake:

Cusco:
Torque: 12Kg's
Number of sheets: 10 each side - totalling 20.

No Idea... but I presume it's closer to that of the J's racing LSD.

Apparently Mugen is the best, and according to Ben @ Touge Tune - All N1 race cars use Mugen difs?

The Quaife is a helical LSD though, not a clutch LSD like the 1.5 way.

ATS Carbonetic, Kaaz or Cusco is what i would recommend getting.

quaife is better in certain circumstances. The clutch types are my choice, though driver preference and car setup really matter on this one.

WTF?!? LOL!!!

LSD's are amazing! Have you even driven with one mate?

Torsen Difs (Quaiffe) are more of a progressive feel, and do not 'lock' aggresively like Clutch type Diff do, like the Cusco.

Cusco's are good, and the rebuild kits are cheap as chips nowadays.

Helical LSDs prevent wheelspin, but once wheelspin occurs (one wheel on road, other on mud), they act like an open diff and spin away unlike a clutch LSD which will still transfer torque to the wheel with traction.
